I've never heard of DVD-A players for OS X. I think this is MS or dedicated hardware only. FWIW, there is a european company that produces a modded DVD player that gives you 3x S/PDIF for the DVD-A and/or SACD output (yes, that includes DSD to PCM converters). Normal DVD-A players only support playing DVD-A to analog outputs. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
